I've said it a thousand times, I'm very happy at Manchester United, insists Ronaldo as Real Madrid concede defeat

Last updated at 11:28 16 April 2008

Manchester United winger Cristiano Ronaldo has admitted he gets angry reading speculation about his future.

The Portugal international has been in remarkable form, scoring 37 goals this season, and links with the Europe's leading clubs are never far away.

Reports surrounding Ronaldo's future prompted United assistant manager Carlos Queiroz to warn rivals even £96million would not be enough to prise away the 23-year-old from the Barclays Premier League champions.

And now Ronaldo has stressed once again he is happy at Old Trafford and says speculation he is seeking a move drives him "mad".

"I just don't care what the whole world seems to want to say about me or speculate about my future," he told The Sun.

"I've said it a thousand times and, by now, people should realise...I'm totally happy at United.

"I'm in the form of my life and I'm having the season of my career so far so it makes me mad sometimes to read some of the things which are supposed to be related to my future.

"I get angry but I'm trying to accept it's a waste of energy to be furious because it is not worth it."

Real Madrid sporting director Predrag Mijatovic was quoted as saying on Tuesday that the Spanish giants were looking at Ronaldo to become the new 'face' of the club, in a similar way to former

France playmaker Zinedine Zidane during his time at Madrid.

Mijatovic has made no secret of his admiration for Ronaldo but has now conceded it would be "impossible" to take him to the Bernabeu this summer.

"Right now it is impossible to sign Cristiano Ronaldo," he said.

"Who would not like to have him in their team?

"But we need to be realistic because his would be a very difficult signing."

Mijatovic also denied he had met with Queiroz to discuss Ronaldo's future.

He said: "There has been talk about lots of things that have nothing to do with reality.

"They have also said I have been seen with Carlos Queiroz and it is not true.
